FILMS for ONE to EIGHT PROJECTORS
With Filmmaker Roger Beebe.
Presented with Cosmic Rays & UnionDocs Center for Documentary Art
Friday March 4th, 6:30PM
Opps. Sold out, folks! Come back for the next one!
We’re over the moon to come together with friends at Cosmic Rays and UnionDocs Center for Documentary Art to light up Fatwood with its first cinematic and mostly small-gauge analog film offering, for one night only with experimental filmmaker and programmer Roger Beebe
He’s bringing us his singular, traveling, and ever-changing program: FILMS for ONE to EIGHT PROJECTORS, called “a single, man-powered, medium-specific spectacle” by The Brooklyn Rail and “both erudite and punk, lo-fi yet high-brow shorts that wrestle with a disfigured, contemporary American landscape” by Wyatt Williams in Atlanta’s Creative Loafing.
Roger Beebe’s Sound Film at UnionDocs, October 14, 2021.
We invite you to join us in kindling the space on Friday March 4th, 6:30PM for some refreshments and social hanging with the show starting around 7PM. We’re located at 2300 Ivey Road.
This will be a homecoming of sorts, as Beebe ran Flicker, a festival of small-gauge film in Chapel Hill, NC, from 1997-2000, and has toured his films through the Triangle countless times over the last 3 decades. His work since 2006 consists primarily of multiple-projector performances and essayistic videos that explore the world of found images and the “found” landscapes of late capitalism.
Come through! All are invited, but space is limited. Proof of vaccination required for entry and masks are required while indoors. There will be hanging after the program; music, drinks and a fire outside for all who join.
Roger Beebe is a filmmaker whose work has screened around the globe at such unlikely venues as the CBS Jumbotron in Times Square and McMurdo Station in Antarctica as well as more likely ones including Sundance and the Museum of Modern Art with solo shows at Anthology Film Archives, The Laboratorio Arte Alameda in Mexico City, and Los Angeles Filmforum, and UnionDocs among many other venues. Beebe is also a film programmer: he ran Flicker, a festival of small-gauge film in Chapel Hill, NC, from 1997-2000 and was the founder and Artistic Director of FLEX, the Florida Experimental Film Festival from 2004-2014. He is currently a Professor in the Department of Art at the Ohio State University.
